In this episode of Being Extra, Jeni and Phillip take on the mystery, the madness, and the mess of political polling. After years of polls getting it wrong—2016, 2020, 2024—can we actually trust them? Or are they just astrology for political nerds?Jeni breaks down the numbers, why polls keep underestimating Trump voters, and how Democrats' approval ratings are hitting historic lows (according to polls, anyway). Meanwhile, Phillip keeps it real—do people even answer pollsters anymore? Are these surveys capturing actual voter sentiment, or just the opinions of people who love talking on the phone?Together, they debate whether Democrats should be panicking over bad polling, how the media gets election predictions so wrong, and why voters are tired of being told what's supposed to happen. And as always, they ask the big question: Are polls a valuable tool, or just political theater?Tune in for fiery takes, plenty of side-eye, and a reality check on whether polls really shape elections—or just shape our expectations.Listen, subscribe, follow, contact us, sign up to be a guest: https://linktr.ee/BeingExtraPodcast

Christopher Luxon is defending his work as Prime Minister. The latest Taxpayers' Union-Curia Poll suggests Chris Hipkins has leap-frogged Luxon as preferred PM. Labour's also ahead on 34.1%, with National trailing on 33.6%. The Prime Minister told Mike Hosking they're putting through legislation to address a range of issues. He says they're working harder than any government to fix what he says was a "mess" left by the last government. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Former Minister Andrew Bayly has escaped the trials and tribulations of Parliament for a hike up Nepal's Mt Everest - but is it frowned upon for an MP to take a holiday while the house is sitting? Also, a new political poll is due out today. What can we expect? Newstalk ZB political editor Jason Walls joined Nick Mills for the Beehive Buzz.

There's an old saying in advertising - to be successful you don't sell the sausage, you sell the sizzle. Christopher Luxon may have a great sausage, but he's not selling its sizzle. The Taxpayers' Union-Curia poll released yesterday afternoon had National up 1.7 points to 33.6%, but Labour had moved past it, jumping nearly three points to 34.1%. The Greens fell to 10%, down 3.2 points. ACT went down 2.3 points and Te Pati Māori rose 2.1 points to 6.5%. NZ First went down 1.3 points to 5.1%. So when we translate this number soup into seats in the house, both Labour and National are up three each to 42. The Greens are down four to 12, ACT is down two to 10, NZ First down to to six, Te Pati Māori up two to eight. That would mean the centre left block of Labour, the Greens and Te Pati Māori would have 62 seats to the centre-right's 58 and thus could form a centre-left government. Now, before anyone starts booking a one-way flight to Australia, the only poll that counts is the one on Election Day. And these opinion polls, midway through a government's term, generally show a disgruntlement with the current lot that's in, rather than an overwhelming desire to see the other lot take over. But this is the third poll, in a row, that puts the opposition ahead. And you might know, and I might know that the government's doing a good job of trying to re-establish some semblance of fiscal propriety, that they're redrawing boundaries about what is and what isn't acceptable behaviour within a decent society, and they've taken the first steps towards restoring a world class education system. But you and I also know that we live in a democracy and every vote counts. The lady who called in and wanted taxpayers to buy everyone a house and a car because that would give them a sense of belonging —she wasn't quite sure how to pay for it, but she thought it would be cheaper in the long run than jail terms— her vote counts the same as yours. There is no denying that the three-headed coalition beast makes it difficult to govern. The Treaty Principles Bill has been a divisive distraction, the bloody school lunches are yet another Labour well-intentioned, misguided initiative that has become this government's problem. People still aren't feeling better off, and they're still waiting a long time for a hip replacement. Dissatisfaction, disgruntlement, disengagement, that's all part of the midterm blues. Speaking to the Herald, Christopher Luxon said New Zealanders are going to have an opportunity in 2026, which is not that far away, to make a decision around Chris Hipkins or myself, he said, and our respective governments. My job is to make sure New Zealanders see that they're better off under my Government, we've come through a very tough time, there are some green shoots that we're really encouraged about on the economy ultimately, he said, New Zealanders are going to judge me at the election in 2026 as to whether we've delivered for them on rebuilding the economy, restoring law and order, delivering better health and education. So do you agree that this is the government not being able to sell its sizzle. The sausage is there, but without the sizzle there will be no successful selling story. I could understand why some within National could feel brassed off. We've got the policies, the building bricks, the foundations, to get New Zealand cracking again and that will better everybody. But if people don't believe that, if they don't believe the message, then they go to vote Labour and we're going to get a centre-left government.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's thought the Prime Minister's communication style doesn't sit well with Kiwis. The latest Taxpayers' Union-Curia Poll shows Chris Hipkins has leap-frogged Chris Luxon as preferred PM. Labour's also ahead on 34.1%, with National trailing on 33.6%. National's support has risen, but support for coalition partners Act and New Zealand First have both dropped. Auckland University marketing expert, Michael Lee told Andrew Dickens Luxon's question side-stepping on Andrew Bayley's sacking was a good example of what he needs to improve. He says there are ways of answering that show he doesn't want to respond in a way which could get himself or someone else in trouble, later on.

Doug Kaplan, President of Kaplan Strategies, discusses the utility of political polling for local, state, and national races. We discuss the value of polls when partisanship is high, the changing political communication landscape, and Florida as a Republican stronghold (for now). 

Christopher Luxon admits the Government has work to do following its latest slide in the polls. Both the latest Taxpayers' Union-Curia poll and the 1News-Verian poll show the left bloc would have the seats to form a government. Chris Hipkins is also gaining ground on Luxon in the preferred prime minister rankings. The Prime Minister told Mike Hosking the results are a sign of how Kiwis are feeling. He says people are facing a tough economic time, and they want the Government to resolve that situation for them. Luxon's also rejecting Labour's calls for David Seymour to be removed from Cabinet. Chris Hipkins is calling for the Act Leader to be removed as a minister after he drove a car up the steps of Parliament at a fundraiser without the Speaker's approval. Seymour's also come under fire for writing to Police, advocating for Philip Polkinghorne, who went on to be charged, then found not guilty of his wife's murder. Luxon told Hosking he's responsible for all ministers in the Cabinet and their conduct, and he's very conscious of that. He says Seymour's letter to Police wasn't a breach of the Cabinet manual, as it happened before Seymour was a minister or in government. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

National's power in the polls looks to be shifting. Both the Taxpayers' Union-Curia poll and the 1News-Verian poll show the left bloc has the numbers to form a government if an election was held today. Both also have Christopher Luxon losing support in the preferred Prime Minister stakes. Curia pollster David Farrar told Mike Hosking people heard the bad economic news in December and are now unsure if the country will get out of it. He interprets the poll as people not abandoning the Government out of anger, but rather waiting to see what happens next. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Labour has eked ahead in the polls as the cost of living crisis bites. The latest Taxpayers' Union Curia poll has Labour overtaking National, the latter falling to 29.6%, against Labour's four percentage point jump, to 30.9%. Ginny Andersen told Ryan Bridge that it's an indication the economy is biting. She says that New Zealanders aren't really getting what they voted for, and that's coming through in the polls. Health is the other big ticket issue impacting the polls, Andersen says, which is why Luxon is trying to head it off by putting Simeon Brown in charge of the portfolio.

This week, we're excited to bring a conversation from NGM Pathways' live community event to our feed. The good folks at our presenting organization, Next Gen Men, hosted Samantha and Remoy for a Q&A session about the US election. We stop just short of the audience Q&A to maintain privacy of the participants. Tune in!Remoy and Samantha start out with a shout-out to self-care. It's been a month since the election and some tough conversations with loved ones may have happened/may be coming up—it's important to take a moment for ourselves.Therapy is still the greatest thing ever. Remoy shouts out his own therapist and Samantha is excited to return this week.Male loneliness continues to be high—Samantha calls back the mental health conversation they had with resident counselor Justin Lioi this time last year.Next Gen Men's new community manager, Charlotte Kinloch, starts out with land acknowledgments. We remember that we are on stolen land both in the US and in Canada, as we start the conversation. Charlotte leads us into unpacking the election…Was this election gendered? It certainly didn't have to be but it was. A white male convicted felon being allowed to run and being measured against the most qualified presidential candidate in recent times certainly feels gendered. Well, it feels supremacist.Samantha and Remoy point out that many other factors were certainly implicated in Americans' decision to vote Trump, but gender cannot be ignored.What was  surprising about the PEW findings from the pre-election episode?Right before the election, Juliana Horowitz from PEW Research Center came on the pod and shared Americans' feelings on men and masculinity. Men's progress and character traits in men were among the most surprising, particularly given the narratives promoted by the manosphere.As Horowitz shared during that episode, which Samantha brought up again now, not blaming women for men's lack of progress doesn't mean that women's progress is appreciated. This points to a patriarchal perspective prevailing among Americans.Samantha sidebars about why men have made less progress than women in the past few decades. PEW Research Center had a study on that as well…Remoy places us within a larger international context. Trump wasn't the only one elected as a result of populist efforts.Faith in education has dropped drastically, and education is viewed as the establishment.How was Trump able to paint himself as a man of the people even though he is a billionaire who rubs elbows with other billionaires? Remoy gives his take.If, as we discovered during our conversation with PEW Center's Senior Associate Director of Research, Juliana Horowitz, Americans value women's leadership and “feminine” traits being valuable to leadership, how did Donald Trump emerge as elected leader for this country yet again?Remoy reflects back on his conservative background before he became liberal and how much masculinity is entrenched in American culture history.Samantha points out that messaging around patriarchal leadership is heavily funded by nontraditional sources and funneled to nontraditional information and news sources. A win for the anti-establishment strategy.The manosphere and its spaces also provide something that men have trouble getting elsewhere.Remoy highlights the need for regulation on social media with a clear solution.How have evolving gender roles impacted the American public?PEW's research found that Americans don't blame men's lack of progress on women's continued progress, but men are still behind.Remoy brings up the biggest point of all, which is the economy. Many folks who vote conservative cite the economy as their main reason for doing so. This election was no different. This has impacted men in a real way, challenging the notion that they are providers. And some of their women spouses voted to ensure that their male partners could get better financially.Samantha highlights the ways in which the economy has already been impacted by Trump's win, but only a few have seen the wins.Talk to us! Did we cover all the points about the election? What would you have added?

This week, Remoy and Samantha debrief the election. After having hope following the PEW findings from the last episode, they try to understand how the election turned out the way it did.The obvious has to be put out there: Kamala Harris's loss has strong racist and sexist undertones.Given most Trump voters cited the economy as the reason why, Samantha talks through Joe Biden's approach as well.Many factors contributed to the state of the economy, including—ahem—COVID, the effects of which we're still feeling now.What's going on with inflation? Samantha gives us high-level notes on COVID-19 led to the worst inflation we've seen.Trump voters may not have known all this, because news sources have changed substantially in recent years.Remoy takes us through the new news landscape.YouTube and Facebook are heavy on Americans' news rotation, many more Americans than you might think get their news from these sources.Not to mention the manosphere speaking directly to men as guests like Donald Trump give them clout while connecting to their fanbase.How can so many Americans fall for these things? Education has been meddled with in so many states.Samantha gives a crash course on the billionaire Koch brothers and their education goals.She delves into the allies that have helped them get there and how they use government and money to undermine public education.Did you know they are longtime associates of Betsy DeVos and her family? Samantha gets into their collaboration instituting the voucher system in states around the country.The Koch have a particular vision for the world they want to see and meddling with American education is their pathway.Trump has now started naming his cabinet, and back in 2016, many of his potential cabinet picks were from the Kochs' network of donors.Remoy reminds us how men's education has plateaued in the US, and how this helps disinform them.The notion of school choice has been a conservative strategy to destabilize public education, reallocating funds to give parents accounts.They end on a note of hope.Join Samantha and Remoy at the Next Gen Men Pathways event.

With the U.S. election just a day away and a Canadian one that could be called very soon, we're all spending a lot of time talking about polls.But how exactly do they work and what happens when they get it wrong? Last week, Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe won another majority government for the Saskatchewan Party despite some polls beforehand showing the NDP in the lead. And famously, the polls highly underestimated Donald Trump's voter base in both 2016 and 2020.So to better understand the ins and outs of the polling business and the challenges of adapting it to changing habits and politics, we're talking to David Coletto, founder and CEO of Abacus Data.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris remain neck-and-neck on the eve of polling day, but one top polling expert is picking the election for Trump. Trump is spending the day in North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Michigan. Harris is focusing on Pennsylvania, a crucial swing state with 19 Electoral College votes. Polling analyst Henry Olsen told Mike Hosking he believes Trump will narrowly win more Electoral College votes. He says the country has shifted to the right, and Harris isn't winning enough independent voters to offset that. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Analysis from Blois Olson and Tom Hauser on The WCCO Morning News.

As the 2024 election heats up, it's easy to assume that hyper-masculine, even toxic masculinity, messaging is resonating across America. But a new Pew Research report tells a different story. After digging in with report creator Juliana Horowitz and Next Gen Men's Trevor Mayoh, Samantha uncovers some surprising truths. Here's where Samantha reveals the real story behind Americans' views on masculinity. Remoy was surprised, to say the least…First Juliana opens up to how the “How Americans See Men and Masculinity” report came out of a more general curiosity, but as the election shifted into a more gendered race, the importance of the research became increasingly clear.Using the report as a jump off, Samantha runs a few questions by Remoy:First: Samantha asked Remoy what he thought when he heard of the association between the American public and the terms: caring, open about their emotions, soft-spoken, or affectionate?Second: She asked him how Americans felt about men pursuing non “traditional” norms: staying home to raise the kids, women paying for the date, men taking a woman's last name in marriage?Third: How do Americans feel about actions that depict Toxic Masculinity?Fourth: Do Americans feel like there's a backlash against men who are manly or masculine?The answers? They're not so cut and dry as you may think with a lot more parity across the aisle. Why?Juliana suggests that generally speaking there's much more nuance to Americans' beliefs and thinking. Especially in contrast to the loud political noise we constantly see and hear.Trevor makes a point that it's the sport of American politics, the tribalism of how it's waged, that unfortunately may disregard a lot of that nuance.Trevor shares what he's experienced with men in his work as a diversity, inclusion and violence prevention consultant. How he encounters a lot of men who are hurting in a variety of ways: work anxieties, stress, expectations to meet the highest standards of what it means to be husband or father. And in the midst of all that, how the larger culture hasn't given men the tools to ask for help to process all these intense expectations.Then he goes on to unpack how that can be exacerbated in highly masculine spaces– how men could actually possess a lot of that nuance Juliana shared in her report –but there's a pack mentality in those intense social environments that doesn't allow men to easily share their discouragements.Remoy wonders if all of this is what can create a culture of “Aggrieved Entitlement.”Does Remoy know what that really is? Nope. Luckily Samantha helps guide the way, defining what that experience is along with how mens' perceptions of women's ascent plays a role in building that entitled foundation.Juliana brings some light to it all by giving a better view of what Americans perceive of the progress women have made in the last 20 years and how that may be affecting the aforementioned entitlement.Trevor reveals how that entitlement, yes, has become a tool for American players like Trump, but is also a larger global culture. How it's more of a larger populist appeal that exploits men's insecurities amidst deeply entrenched gender norms.Trevor leaves Samantha and Remoy with one last take away about how maybe the greatest misunderstanding of all these political games, is that if anything, it may provide community, friendship, or just a person to share a laugh with. A rare commodity for men especially as they age.Samantha and Remoy really take this information in to gather a better understanding of how vulnerable men may be and how if this is the most vulnerable area for predation, how sad the American political environment may be.Samantha then breaks off on her own to ask Juliana more questions about the importance of the “How Americans See Men and Masculinity” report. Along the way pursuing a deeper understanding with Trevor at how to better wade through all these layers of these findings amidst the visible political situation in America.Finally, Samantha and Remoy discuss how to hold all this nuance alongside knowing we're in a fractured American political system; especially when facing the obligation to participate when the cracks are so apparent. Together they land on multiple ideas that empower each other to have faith and still fight back as part of their own civic duty. Referenced on this episode:Want to dive into the actual report from the Pew Research Center?

So, one poll tells us something by not really moving and another poll tells us something by being badly misrepresented.  The TV1 news numbers last night show that essentially the Government is travelling well, most parties are stable, the Greens are down a bit, but its all, so far, within the margin of error. Nothing really has changed.  What that tells you is broadly a couple of things. The first is at this stage of the electoral cycle people don't pay as much attention as they will be in 18 months' time.  The second is the Government, with its level of support, is doing basically what they said they would, and most people are happy.  The other poll was on race relations. TV1 promoted the fact only 10% think the Government is improving them, but 46% think they are damaging them.  What they didn't give the appropriate prominence to was the fact 37% think it's not making any difference. In other words, despite all the noise and hot air being drummed up by radicals and the media, most of us aren't engaged because nothing really is changing.  If you take the 37% who see no change and the 10% who see an improvement you have 47%, which is in fact more people thinking things are either neutral or better, as opposed to the 46% who think they are worse.  This of course ties into why the Government numbers overall haven't moved and their support remains strong. The so-called drama around Māori policy is not actually politically damaging.  You will note the numbers weren't presented that way by the state-run broadcaster. A good question might be: why not?  What moves needles is the economy and on that we might be in for an improvement. If we are, what you will then see is the polling numbers most definitely shift in the Government's favour.  Māori relations have been tested and testy my entire life. The previous Government bent over backwards for Māori, their beliefs, needs and causes, and look where it got them.  The current Government have read things right. Outcomes are what count, whether in race relations or the economy.  The numbers broadly show they are on the right side of both. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
